How the Epitomee® Capsule Works

Each Epitomee® Capsule contains a proprietary polymer blend that gently expands in the stomach after being taken with water, forming a soft, gel-like structure. This structure creates a natural* feeling of fullness, signaling the brain to help you feel satiety—so you can eat smaller portions without feeling deprived.

The Mechanism of Action

Drug-Free Technology That Works

The Epitomee® Capsule represents a new frontier in weight management—combining advanced material science with a simple, natural mechanism of action. Each Capsule contains a proprietary polymer blend that gently expands in the stomach after being taken with water, forming a semi-rigid, gel-like triangle structure. Here’s how it works.

The Epitomee® capsule is intended to facilitate weight loss in patients aged 18 and older who are overweight (BMI 25-30 kg/m2) or obese (BMI 30-40 kg/m2) who have not achieved desired results through diet and exercise. The Epitomee® capsule is intended to be used as an adjunct to diet and exercise. It can be suitable for individuals with or without comorbidities, including those who are ineligible for or do not want other weight loss medications, such as injections, under the supervision of a healthcare provider. Donna H. Ryan MD, Professor Emerita at Pennington Biomedical Research Center, mentioned that Epitomee® is a good fit for many patient types, and that it offers a significant advantage for individuals at a BMI of 25  to 30 who have no co-morbidities, a category where most anti-obesity medications are still not approved. Professor Jamy Ard also stated that Epitomee® is a safe and effective, non-pharmacological option for weight management, with broad application in patients who are overweight or obese. It can be used for a wide variety of patients, including those who may not tolerate other medications or have contraindications to them.

Epitomee® is a swallowable capsule that helps you manage your weight. It is classified as a medical device, not a drug. Once swallowed with water, the capsule disintegrates in the stomach and releases a device that absorbs water and expand  to form a three-dimensional triangular structure. This structure occupies volume in the stomach, creating a sensation of fullness earlier and helping you eat less throughout the day. The device works mechanically only and is drug-free.

Please refer to the Instructions for Use (IFU) for complete information. The response below does not include all relevant details.

If you missed a pre-meal dose, take Epitomee® during that meal, making sure to follow the directions for use and swallow one capsule with two glasses of water.
